When
you spend time under the sun, you increase the vitamin D supply in the body.
Vitamin B is responsible for fighting heart disease, depression, cancer and
osteoporosis. The bad thing is that during winter, it can be quite difficult to
get even a few minutes of sunshine in the busy schedules that we have. There
are also areas where the sunshine is very little.

So
what do we do when it is difficult to find natural sunshine? One of the best
options available is to visit spray tanning salons in Tulsa. However, one of
the key questions in the minds of many people is on whether a Tulsa tanning can
provide the same quality of vitamin D as what you get form the sunlight. The
tanning booths and the sun both send 2 kinds of ultraviolet light rays-UVA
& UVB. Both types are obtained by the skin but in different ways.

UVA
contains longer wavelengths and are therefore able to reach the deepest part of
the skin. On the other hand, the lengths of the UVBs are usually shorter and
are only able to reach the outer layer of the skin. The UVB rays are
responsible for triggering vitamin D synthesis in the skin and therefore, play
a key role in the benefits of the sun to the skin. This means that when you
expose your face and arms to the skin for a period of 20 minutes every day, you
will be getting enough UVB rays.

It
is possible to calibrate a tanning bed to ensure that it produces high amounts
of UVB rays and therefore produce the same health benefits gotten from
sunshine. However, the most important thing is to ensure moderation. There is
need to prevent excessive exposure to the ultraviolet rays as this may have
dangerous consequences.
